ABOUT BOSE

You know the moment. It’s the first notes of that song you love, the intro to your favorite movie, or simply the sound of someone you love saying “hello.” It’s in these moments that sound matters most.

At Bose, we believe sound is the most powerful force on earth. And we’ve dedicated ourselves to improving it for nearly 60 years. Ever since our founder, Dr. Amar Bose, bought a stereo system and thought, “I can make this better,” we’ve been relentlessly pushing forward to the next best thing. 

Innovation is more than what we do. It’s who we are — constantly learning and constantly curious. We never stop imagining what better sound sounds like. We’re music fanatics and audio engineers. We’re explorers and inventors and dreamers. And we’re passionate down to our bones about making whatever you’re listening to a little more magical.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

We're looking for students to join our Co-Op Program who are obsessively curious about 'what's next'. You'll get hands on experience with our products and learn from the best of the best in the business. You will immerse yourself into Bose for 6 months and get the opportunity to grow the skills your learned in the classroom with hands on work experience. By the time you end your time with us, you will have been given the opportunity to truly make a real impact in the future of Bose and your career!

Opportunities don't stop at your day-to-day work. While you're getting an in depth look at your area of expertise, we'll expose you to other areas of the company. Our Co-Ops are given the opportunity to connect with senior leadership across the business to understand different perspectives at Bose. You'll network with other Co-Ops and colleagues to grow your network for the future!

Timeframe: January - June 2025

THE ROLE

Exploration into Bose's end-to-end supply chain, including exposure to Commodity Management, Logistics, Planning, Marketing, Product Development, Program Management, and Strategy.

You have the opportunity to receive Yellow Belt certification and add to the organization through your certification project.  The project will evaluate Bose's strengths and establish practical areas for improvement.  This will include capturing and analyzing the appropriate data, preparing a report of findings and recommendations, and, in some instances, addressing the department and implementing approved recommendations.

Responsibilities:

Gain experience in Supply Chain ranging from New Product Development to Demand and Supply Planning to delivery into warehouses.

The position includes a combination of strategic/project work and standard daily/weekly work. The standard work may consist of handling a commodity/vendor and reporting using Excel, SAP, and Business Intelligence.

The Operations group is a support group within Bose's Product & Supply Chain organization. The ideal Operations Analyst candidate is an independent worker and creative thinker who excels in project work over standard work.
